Goldilocks - FO

I finished my Goldilocks yesterday! I even had enough time to block it and get some pictures before bedtime.

Goldilocks Dress

I used exactly 1 skein of Malabrigo Sock in Light of Love. I'm surprised that it only took 1 skein, since the yardage requirement for this size is 750 yards! I was really expecting it to take at least a little bit of a second skein. I have another skein of Malabrigo Sock in Violeta Africana that would make a perfect fall/winter version of this dress.

It was a quick knit once I made it past the first 10 rows. Getting started with the contiguous increases and the cable pattern required a lot of paying attention. As you can imagine, I don't get a lot of undistracted knitting time. Most of the time, my kids are with me when I'm knitting, which can lead to mistakes (like knitting instead of purling, or missing an increase). This sweet dress was completely worth the short-lived confusion. Grace even agrees!

Happy Friday!

    Stunning! I know what you mean by distracted knitting ... the only way I knit these days is to drag it around with me and knit while sitting on the floor supervising toddler play! Maybe that's why I'm loving garter stitch so much lately, ha!
